Abstract: A surveillance system having two specialized surveillance cameras with corresponding specialized illuminators is provided in a dual compartment container that eliminates internal light reflection problems by separating each camera and corresponding illuminator while combining each camera with an alternate illuminator, rendering the system more accurate, yet more compact and suited to unobtrusive placement. Considerable heat is generated by the specialized illuminators, requiring a heat sink to preserve illuminator life expectancy and to prevent the adjacent cameras from being adversely affected by the heat. Another feature enabling the system to work in its compact form despite the heat from the illuminators is that the protective case itself is adapted to be a heat sink for the illuminators.

Abstract: Described are fiber materials having improved malodor scavenger properties and a process for the manufacture of said materials. In particular, described are fiber materials usable in the manufacture of disposable or washable diapers, incontinent products, sanitary napkins and other such hygiene and personal care articles with improved malodor scavenger properties, and to methods of manufacturing such materials. It has been found that the incorporation of, especially nanosized, metal particles and/or a cyclodextrin material into fibers creates a “reactive” material having excellent malodor scavenging properties. More specifically, it has been found that the presence of nanosized metal or metal alloy particles and/or a cyclodextrin material in a fiber material, preferably a synthetic polymer material and more preferably a synthetic thermoplastic polymer fiber material leads to fiber materials or nonwovens having odor-controlling properties. The fiber material especially is useful in the manufacture of hygienic products like disposable diapers.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système de pile à combustible au méthanol direct (DMFC) compact à base de modules. Ledit système permet de résoudre les problèmes associés aux fonctions critiques de récupération d'eau des gaz d'échappement de la cathode, de séparation du dioxyde de carbone du flux de sortie de l'anode, de dilution de méthanol concentré entrant et de gestion thermique dans un système DMFC. Le système est basé sur une solution plus naturelle et évite l'utilisation de dispositifs consommateurs d'énergie et volumineux ; augmentant ainsi l'efficacité du système DMFC d'au moins 25 %, réduisant le coût du système DMFC et augmentant la fiabilité du système DMFC, comparé à des systèmes DMFC à base de condensateurs. De plus, le système présente une taille relativement petite, comparé aux systèmes DMFC à base de condensateurs, principalement due à l'utilisation de modules à base de plaques qui sont parfaitement intégrés en tant que système DMFC. La taille individuelle du système est généralement réduite d'environ 35 % ou plus comparé aux systèmes DMFC à base de condensateurs.

Abstract: A method for measuring the duty cycle of a signal. The method is fast enough
to allow duty cycle measurements of semi-conductor components during production.
The method can also be performed inexpensively using automatic test equipment. A
comparator in a digital channel is used to sense the state of an input signal at multiple
points across the period of the signal. Fail processing circuitry within the tester is
used to count the number of samples for which the input signal is in a logic HI state.
This value is scaled by the total number of samples taken to produce a single number
indicative of the duty cycle of the signal.
